EXPECTATIONS

This is your self-instructional learner module in Reading and


Writing. All the activities provided in this lesson will help you
learn and understand:
Context of Text Development: Hypertext.

CONTENT STANDARD: The learner understands the


relationship of a written text and the context in which it was
developed.

PERFORMANCE STANDARD: The learner writes a 1000-word


critique of a selected text on the basis of its claim/s, context,
and properties as a written material.

LEARNING COMPETENCY: Identify the context in which a


text was developed.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
1. Identify the statements as true or false.
2. Construct a sample hypertext by providing related reading
materials about the given topic.
3. Realize the importance of disaster preparedness by
interpreting an adage.

Being a critical reader also involves understanding that


texts are always developed within a certain context. A text is
neither written nor read in a vacuum; its meaning and
interpretation are affected by a given set of circumstances.
Thus, context is defined as the social, cultural, political,
historical, and other related circumstances that surround the
text and form the terms from which it can be better
understood and evaluated.
To better understand the message of the text, there are
some readers who would search for its related reading
materials through the aid of technology and this practice is
known as hypertextuality which was coined by Ted Nelson
around 1965.

Hypertextuality according to K. Amaral, 2010 is simply


a non-linear way of presenting information. It also refers to
the use of hyperlinks (or simply “links”) to present text and
static graphics. See sample below.

A hyperlink is an automated cross-reference to another


location on the same document or to another document
which, when selected by a user, causes the computer to
display the linked location or document within a very short
period of time. They take the form of buttons, underlined words
and phrases, and other “hot” areas on the screen.

Web designers and others who are interested in hypertext


often use the term “node” to refer to chunks of content. The
term “node” or Web page is the fundamental unit of hypertext
content while links (or hyperlinks) are the pathways between
nodes.
Hypertext is a type of database that is well suited for
handling large chunks of text. A database is a set of data that
has a regular structure and that is organized in such a way
that a computer can easily find the desired information.

Hypertext documents can be static, dynamic or active.

A static document is one that is prepared in advance


and appears in the web browser as is. The author of a static
document determines the content\ at the time the document
is written.

A dynamically generated document is one that does not


exist in a final form but, rather, is produced according to user
input, such as according to information that a user enters on
a form.
An active document consists of a computer program
that the server sends to the browser and that the browser
must run locally. When it runs, the active document program
can interact with the user and change the display
continuously.

ACTIVITIES

Activity 1

Directions: Draw if the statement is correct and if otherwise.

1. Critical reading is just about extracting information from a text.

2. Hypertext allows readers to acquire varied pieces of information


which are updated.

3. Hyperlinks give us choices when we look for information.

4. Learners who would like to explore hypertext should have the ability
to access information on the computer.

5. Hypertext allows readers to analyze information from multiple


perspective.
Activity 2

A. Directions: Determine whether the following statements are


TRUE or FALSE.

1. One way to interpret a text’s meaning is to understand the


underlying circumstances that led to the construction of
the material.

2. Context does not consider the time and place in which the
text was written.

3. Hypertext is a text which contains links to other text.

4. Hyperlinks restrict people from navigating materials related


to the text being searched.

B. Directions: Fill in the blanks with the correct word to


complete the meaning of the following statements. Choose the
letter of the correct answer from the word pool below.

A. Bookmark E. Static hypertext


B. Dynamic hypertext F. Web page
C. Hyperlink G. Web site
D. Hypertext H. World Wide Web

1. A text with embedded links in it is called a _____.

2. _____ takes you from one Web location to another.

3. _____ displays the same information every time its page is


viewed.

4. A _____ is an individual HTML document.

5. _____ is a type of hyperlink that directs the readers to
